I get the reference.

And to prove I do, I'll write it down here, with tiny characters.

I might get the size wrong, though. I often mistake 1s and 7s... or 1s and 1s, 7s or 7s. I just can't distinguish them! D:

Oh. Consider this a post of "make it happen" too.

It would probably be very silly, after having the necessary balancing applied to make it a useful, viable weapon.

But I admit it would be a lot of fun to kill a fleshpound by smashing his face with a brick, raging him, smashing his face with another brick, and then katanaing his previously mentioned face to finish him off.


Also, Condemned had bricks... or was it Condemned 2? Both?

really
Anybody who hates this needs to lighten up their sense of humor and get a better imagination. 9_6 has a made good point, we don't need all of this high-tech equipment made for killing, we need something that shows how desperate your squad is, and to prove that only REAL GAMERS play games like Killing Floor.

BRICK FOR NEXT UPDATE.


it does explain why a squad of im guessing highly trained soldiers and law enforcement officers are buying from some shady looking mercenary.

I really have no way of disagreeing with the brick suggestion. :IS2:

Add to the game, kthxbai. :p

This is awesome.
fix'd

Should be a tier 3 weapon and cinder block being tier 4

And a capacity 5 would be fine if you could pick them back up

...and/or cannibalize buildings. :V

But this should totally be a demo weapon... to balance this the berserker can have a really heavy chair.

Also looking at one person's name and signature: if the bricks are the sort with the holes in them the holes can also contain bees.

Seems really awkward and redundant to me. Who wants to pay for (or carry) a bag of 20 bricks when you could be buying a katana or ammo?

What would make sense though is using any physics object as a melee/thrown weapon in Killing Floor 2, with berserker getting a nice bonus to melee damage and throw range. I never played it myself, but I think there's a similar system in Dead Rising. It would have the feel of a survival game, when you are out of options and scrambling to pick anything up to defend yourself. And it would be nice for berserkers who happen to be standing in a pile of rubble to be able to crack some crawler skulls from a distance with a blunt object they found on the ground. If you have the free weight, you would be able to carry a smaller object like a brick in your inventory for later use, and pick it up afterwards if it doesn't break. Also, you could make traps by dropping heavy objects out of the windows on the second floor of the offices, for example.

The bad thing about your idea is what you are referring to would probably be treated as "Karma" objects. And those were removed for good reason as people were using them to exploit.

If this was made to be as ultra brutal and violent as bricks are in condemned 2 than it would be my weapon of choice.

This idea seems really cool to me, however, how about not being able to buy those bricks in the shop, but finding them at places in the map where they could be; like a demolished house etc. Then it might be usefull to reduce the amount of bricks you can carry to 2, BUT make those "sources" of bricks inexhaustible so you can always come back to get new one.

Carrying 60 bricks is way out of league. I suggest just 2 concrete blocks tied with a rope u can throw and pull back...
